Effect of endogenous CO2 overpressure on the yeast "stressome" during the "prise de mousse" of sparkling wine.

This study focuses on the stressome evolution along the prise de mousse under CO2 overpressure conditions in an industrial S. cerevisiae strain. The results reveal an important effect of endogenous CO2 overpressure on the stress sub-proteome, cell viability and metabolites such as glycerol, reducing sugars and ethanol. Whereas the content of glycerol biosynthesis-related proteins increased in sealed bottle, those involved in the response to toxic metabolites like ROS, ethanol, acetaldehyde and acetic acid, decreased in content. Proteomic profile obtained in this study may be used to select suitable wine yeast strains for sparkling wine elaboration and improve their stress tolerance. PMID: 32138989 [PubMed - in process]
